Earlier today I thought I would be sick.

That was after reading Zev Shalev's EFTA document collection (shared online) plus his detailed analysis today (narativ.org) of Lutnick's extensive financial connections with Epstein, Bear Stearns, JPMorgan, Liquid Funding, et al. Oh, and the Panama Papers.

Epstein sold Lutnick the adjoining mansion in NYC for $10, for instance. And much much more. I feel the data and analysis need to go to the International Consortium for Investigative Journalism.

In vetting Lutnick as suitable to be Sec. of Commerce, the FBI IGNORED the clear paper trail /database of cases implicating Lutnick. It did not investigate at all, as EFTA docs show, and cleared him as suitable.

--- Now I am also sick after reading about the missing interviews by the FBI with this girl. I hope she is as strong as she needs to be.

Nina,

Who is the Cuomo that is referred to in Sollenburger's Slide 18? Is this the FBI interviewer's name?

This raises real questions about what was removed from the Epstein files and why. When key interviews disappear—especially from a woman the FBI labeled a high‑risk source—you deserve a transparent accounting of what happened, who made those decisions, and whether power or fear shaped what the public was allowed to see.

I read this story many years ago about this girl raped and was settled in the law suit to not talk about it to anyone and they threaten to kill her family if it was spoken to the authorities

She feared for her life, clearly. But is this the person they relocated to Washington state? Someone was relocated in fear of her existence.

Excellent work. However the illustration for the post is confusing, showing Trump, Epstein, and a yellow figure with question-mark. This suggests there were three men in the subject photo. But the post says it showed Trump and Epstein, meaning the witness wanted to redact Trump as you say.

Now this story is unfolding again What will be the balance of truth to finally prove that trump is the villain. A new statement with Tim Barnical has authored a new book about trump, he should also review and write about the evidence in which trump was involved with NYC construction contractors corruption contracts with companies such as Arc plumbing and heating with representative John Gotti with the trump organization being involved

Michael Wolff claims Trump didn’t meet Epstein until around 1988. They approached Herbert Allen, and Trump had known Allen through Roy Cohn, Trump said hello and said I’d like you to meet my associate “Jeffie”. Wolff thinks they’d only known each other 6 months at this point but?

Just now seeing this, having run across Gerald Burton a few days back. The Courier article really opens the flood gates on yet another part of this tale of abuse including a soft confirmation of the golf course rapes as that was Burton's business - having built and or developed many of them.

Amend ' Barton'. Though he is deceased, I sincerely hope his reputation is drug deep into the mud with all the rest for he surely deserves it. I picture a hole not in heaven where these people end up for all the harm they've caused.

It is hard to believe that an investigation has never been done with all the New York City construction corruption that has taken place,one such job with a massive involvement was the nyc sanitation depot in maspeth built to repair trucks in the 90’s that was millions over original costs with arc plumbing and heating involved
